A DOG'S BILL OF RIGHTS By Carolyn Krause 1. I have the right to give and receive unconditional love. 2. I have the right to a life that is beyond mere survival. 3. I have the right to be trained so I do not become the prisoner of my own misbehavior. 4. I have the right to adequate food and medical care. 5. I have the right to fresh air and green grass. 6. I have the right to socialize with people and dogs outside my family. 7. I have the right to have my needs and wants respected. 8. I have the right to special time with my people. 9. I have the right to only be bred responsibly -IF AT ALL. 10.I have the right to some time and space all of my own. 11.I have the right to be foolish and silly, and to make my person laugh. 12.I have the right to earn my person's trust and to be trusted in return. 13.I have the right to be forgiven. 14.I have the right to die with dignity. 15.I have theright to be remembered well.

And too bad that there are children in this world who don't even get a Dogs Bill of Rights. I always find it comforting to read these postings and know that so many people out there treat their pets with the care, love and respect they deserve.
